Most beautiful song ever made

A little mainstream possibly, but I've always had a soft spot for Jolene by Ray Lamontagne. His voice helps ramp up the emotional impact of course, but it just feels so earnest?!?

I don't know about most beautiful, but one song I've always fallen back onto when I'm feeling any sort of melancholy is The Books' "A Little Longing Goes Away" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-oNlYp6AeU
They have that duality of being both sad and somewhat uplifting at the same time down to a science.

In terms of melancholic beauty, this has gotta be up there.. especially this version.

This is highly subjective, of course, but for me this song will always qualify:

Echo & The Bunnymen - The Killing Moon

The Girl from Ipanema is a lovely choice.

Little_A_Northern_Soul_1 was recently obsessed with the film Rio (cracking kids film btw) & there's a version of that song on there, so it has been in my head a lot recently. Along with some great samba tunes

I listened to this piece a stupid amount of time over the winter. It sure sounded like the most beautiful music for a while.

great choice. i've been mildly obsessed with Satie and the Gymnopedies lately; so minimalist and simple, but very powerful.

I think my vote goes to NIN - Leaving Hope. that track always manages to toy with my emotions.
